The Master's replies to her entry only fueled her desire to at the very least beat on his face some and give HIM a broken rib to nurse. She had honestly and truly had enough. Couldn't their piss-offs be with just words for once? No, that'd be asking too much of the Master. And he wanted to be the better man. That just would never happen.

She looked down at the Tenth Doctor, now in a sort of fitful, pained sleep. The sight reminded her of when he had regenerated. It had taken her some time, and put him through more pain than she wanted to think about, just to get his torso wrapped up and him lying back in bed next to a still unconscious Ninth Doctor. She sighed. Good thing he had given her a key to the room. She now had to be Nurse Tyler to both her Doctors.

It was just all wrong, so very very wrong.

Rose took a deep breath and temporarily calmed the storm within her so she could concentrate on gently checking the Ninth Doctor's vitals. One crushed, the other beaten.

Definitely not her week.

Vitals check done she gently pulled a blanket over the two of them and stepped quietly away from the bed. If they knew what she was going to head off and do they'd do more than just blow their tops.

In her time at the castle she had figured out that it took requests whether spoken out loud or thought about. Perfect, considering she knew they wouldn't like hearing her requests.

A katana. The castle produced one that looked like a near exact replica of the one she had last held in her hands. Fine by her considering she was giving that fucking bastard a repeat performance and all.

A fully-loaded handgun small enough so she could conceal it well enough under her red hoodie. An extra round of bullets to be concealed in a pocket.

That left her with one thing - a failsafe in case things went downhill. She looked back to the sleeping Doctors, katana casually held in one hand with the tip resting on the floor. They couldn't save her this time if needed. She knew they would hate her plan. They had after all stopped her the first time she tried to do it.

She knew her final request to the castle would be carried out, as usual. One very large truck and a thick chain with a hook would be waiting outside the Doctor's TARDIS. Only this truck she specifically asked to be voice activated so she could rip open the console with no help. She knew the castle would provide a truck like that as it provided them everything - except what they originally lost and a way home.

That settled she headed toward the door and was about to leave before she stopped and looked back to the Doctors again. She leaned the katana against the wall and went over to them.

Hopefully she didn't die. They needed someone to take care of them. Hold their hands.

She leaned over and first kissed the Ninth Doctor on the forehead, and then the Tenth.

She didn't look back again as she went to the door, got the katana and stepped outside to lock the door with her key. At least they'd be safe for now.

Katana in hand she headed to the elevator. No sense in going down all those flights to the second floor.

He was waiting after all.

The pain burst in his chest. He almost screamed, and instead, choked it back. He had surrendered too much already. Instead, he stumbled, and reached out with the bloodslick hand to catch himself on the truck.

It slid off, and he fell to his hands and knees painfully. Grass and dirt pressed up against a still fresh and still bleeding wound. His broken rib ground in his chest.

Existance was pain.

He hadn't even gotten to his feet when his mind was assaulted. He barely had half of his defenses back up. The Master collapsed and gripped his head.

He screamed, "GET OUT!"

It was easy to get in. In fact, the first push got her there, to the broken, barely held together mindscape that he had. Warped and twisted with madness and insanity - shattered before and pieced back together with chunks missing.

It hurt. It hurt. That was all he could think about. It hurt.

He clawed violently at his head as every scrap of his defenses were ripped and shredded by a force that made him insignificant. There was too much pressure, too much pain. His mind shattered and fragmented, and whatever sense and sanity he had left was gone - for now.

The Master could feel nothing besides the pain in his head. For a while, he was certain he could hear nothing but his own pained screams.

Then someone telling him to go. Go? Where? He wasn't sure where he was now. He wasn't even sure who this person was, telling him to go. He didn't even remember who he was!

But he painfully complied, feeling a sort of... strange sense that he ought to get away, or something bad might happen - even though he was certain he was dying. He got to his feet as best he could and weakly stumbled away, his face contorted with fear and pain. He didn't get too far before he had to stop and thrash about, which caused him to almost collapsed. Once it passed, he continued, shakingly, away.
